Foodie Guide to Celebrate Hispanic and Latin American Heritage Month at Disney

Foodie Guide to Celebrate Hispanic and Latin American Heritage Month at Disney

Ok, this is one of my favorite months to eat at Walt Disney World. Disney has once again announced Hispanic and Latin American Heritage Month and will celebrate it true Disney style. The event will run from Sept. 15 to Oct. 15 and at both Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort. Disney will have tasty treats highlighting the flavors of the Hispanic and Latin American cultures but for a limited time!

Disney Parks has taken inspiration from several traditions this month and throughout the entire year with various eats and sips that light up your palette. From the delicious Passionfruit Guava Tres Leches at Disney’s Port Orleans Riverside Resort – Riverside and French Quarter to the tasty dishes from the Plaza de La Familia festivities at Paradise Garden Grill at Disney California Adventure Park, your tastebuds will be taken on a journey into the cuisine of this culture and leave you wanting more of these delicious dishes.
